How a random crack on the Vita screen turned into a nightmare for the customer.
A new patent recently published by Sony wants to gather biometric data of gamers to track whether one is being harassed using AI tools.
I hope this is one of those patents that never comes to fruition.
I already dislike the fact you can pay a significant amount for a online service buy associated games and content on said service and get banned from that service over potentially a misunderstanding the bans are already handed out for flimsy reasons
I'd rather see money invested in a ban that simply removes the offensive players ability to communicate with unknown players allow them to continue party chats with friends but not with Joe blow on cod.
Take my social security and bank account numbers too! Here’s a picture of my wife and our address.
At this rate I feel Sony will eventually sell a room to play games in it where they can monitor your every breath
I want them to censor erotic content by measuring my groin temperature so i dont get too distracted while playing black ops 2.
Terrible idea. Not only do I not consent to providing my biometric data, the potential for mishandling biometric data is almost a certainty. Positive stress and negative stress can produce similar changes in biometrics. Interpreting the precise emotion a person is feeling is not only invasive but could be easily misconstrued. I hope this never comes to fruition.
Sony has recently published a new patent that wants to dynamically handle the games' difficulty and gameplay based on the player's emotions.
This is something I might use. Sometimes I play some good games but they don’t have difficulty option and are a little too easy.
cool idea
cool idea for horror games especially
the way it's explained here sounds like it could never be forced hopefully, so that's ok with me
Sony has recruited Bungie's head of revenue Jaremy Rich to head up its live-service gaming division, Rich has announced on social media.
Please do not put Destiny’s monetization into Sony’s first party games. The monetization is what’s driving players away from Destiny.
I mean, this person made some pretty bad decisions at Bungie. I hope they've learned from them because I definitely don't see those type of ideas as good for PlaySation in general.
Ps5 gamers in 2023 seemed to play more live service types of games, so regardless to how people feel about them, numbers don’t lie and Sony is going where the money is. I mean look at the excitement around Helldivers2, people are showing that they want live service games.
How do you kill a franchise that already been killed?
Destiny’s grind, cash-in-on-playbass-cha-Ching, and pop-culture-insertion mainstream-me-too bs totally killed any rep Bungie had. Sony/Bungie, if you are doing this to ward-off players, it’s already working.
I had to deal with them when I got the ylod on my ps3. long story short...the customer service representative was being a di*k. I ended up cussing him out abd talking to his boss. boss solved problem.....moral of story...if they treat you bad, cuss them out ask for management problem solved. pretty sure this tactic works with most customer service lines.
"However; I was then told that the serial number had come off due to general usage. They then said they could identify the console from the remaining numbers, but due to the lack of the serial number it was now out of warranty"
I have this issue right now but I am not backing down. My sticker came off after 5-6 months use and now my screen has gone funny and unpredictable. I have sent a letter, after I called them about the issue, the other day and if that doesn't do anything I will find other means to annoy them. If it means standing outside their office naked with a billboard so be it. It is unacceptable that an important sticker comes off so easily.

Say what you like about Microsoft, when my XBL account was compromised (and I lost A LOT of money) they bent over backwards to make sure I was not only reimbursed, but back up and running as quickly as possible. They even gave me a whole heap of bonuses and then checked up on me a month down the lie to see if everything was okay.
I couldn't fault them at all - it was very impressive.
Ive had bad experience with all of them Except Nintendo (never called them)
My friend though had pretty good with Sony and MS,Sony r helped get his old data onto his new ps3 and bricked the ps3 that was stolen from him.He's also owned like 10 ps3/360's....
Also,prepare for fabricated and exaggerated stories!...as you can find already.
Think can be hit and miss here in UK customer services can be pain often tryin to get threw to talk to management cant be done.
I have phoned in past Sony couple times one for my old PSP witch was out date cost of a refurb was ridicules the other was replacement YLOD witch i got replaced then sold on to buy Slim.
My dealings with MS at first was ok.. When i had te launch 360 but after needing a replacement on 2-3 even 4th time. The manner changed resulting inthe end they wouldn't give me back my purchases on XBL. This made me wild of course these were launch 360s and replaced with refurbs.
By that time PS3 was launched sold up bought PS3 and resistance fall of man i was good for solid 3years till got a slim.
Customer services Never something enjoyable im always concerned on who im gonna be taken my matter up with somebody nice? Ignorant? Arrogant? Or just wants to hang up on me.
